I cannot say enough good things about this dining experience. I have been a few times and every single time has been just truly incredible. From the second you walk in to the second you leave the door, every moment is perfect. The attention to detail is truly amazing. Every morsel of food I have had from this restaurant has been absolutely delectable. As someone who eats primarily vegan it is such a delight to have truly gourmet food with very interesting tastes and textures that is vegan. When you leave your seat, your napkin is picked up and folded next to your plate when you return. When you return to your seat, your seat is often pulled out for you. Every single person is so kind and welcoming and helpful. Just to reiterate, the food is absolutely some of the best I have ever had.
